Thanks- nice to read about my "Peeps"- the last paragraph- Nancy is my 3rd great grandaunt. Also, James Evans is my 3rd great grandfather- and of course, this Richard is my guy! I am surprised and intrigued that it refers to his being Col. Daniel Morgan's rifleman in the Rev War. We have not yet been able to prove his involvement. The only name from this bunch that I do NOT have in my genealogy records is Shortridge- found here. Hmmmmm.
